Handmade Dog Treats in Canandaigua, NY
Founded in Canandaigua, New York—“The Chosen Spot”—The Chosen Spot K9 Kitchen was built on a mission to create healthy, handmade dog treats using only high-integrity ingredients.
Since 2023, founders Sydney Killian and Aaron Martin have focused on making treats that prioritize nutrition, transparency, and quality. With experience handling a military service dog and raising their own dogs—Kali, Petey, and Marco—they understand how much what a dog eats impacts how they feel and thrive.
